    The Allstar brands medicine organization is one of the leading Pharmaceutical companies who manufactures quality over the counter (OTC) cold and allergy medicine at very reasonable market competitive price. Moreover, Allstar Brands' Allround product is one of the highest market share leaders in the over-the-counter (OTC) cold and allergy remedy market. Therefore, the persistent success of the Allstar brand in regards to the profits and sales previously formed, has made it a crucial component of the Allstar’s Pharmaceuticals Division's long-term strategic plan. Specifically, Allstar brand targets young men and women with children experiencing cold and allergy symptoms. A more difficult strategy that also focuses on customers who have purchased the product is to target competitors’ customers (Winer & Dhar, 2016, p. 39). Ordinarily, this segment will prove to have the best value in the long run compared to those customers already set with a specific brand.…

    Furthermore, by period 8, total advertising spending was up $28.2 million while promotional spending increased $10.6 million. Additionally, we introduced Allright in the fifth period because there was an increasing need for an allergy sector, which was lacking before. Advertising for Allright focused primarily on relieving allergy symptoms since this was something not promoted for Allround or Allround+. Not to mention, we believed that being the first to introduce this new product would have a significant impact on the company. The line extension was not generating income despite increased investments in advertising and promotions. Therefore, we decided to remove Allright in period 6 because we felt that it was not a valuable line extension to the Allstar brands and it would do more harm than good in the long…

    Allstar Brands' Allround product is a 4-hour multi-symptom, over-the-counter, liquid medicine used to treat colds, coughs, and allergies. Allround is typically used at night because of the strength of the medication and because the alcohol and antihistamine helps consumers rest. When LSD&J took over as Brand Managers, our strategy was two-fold; grow the top and grow the bottom of the company. Our goal was to make the company strong and stable to ensure Allstar remains one of the top brands of medicine for years to come. Our strategy to grow the bottom was to focus on keeping our gross profit margin stable by minimizing operating cost, manufacturing cost and fixed cost. Our strategy to grow the top was to increase sales and net income. This strategy of slow and stable growth allows our foundation to remain healthy and our brand to maintain long-term success.…

    As the brand manager for OTC cold medicine group, my primary objective was to capitalize on marketing opportunities using Allstar’s identified strengths and weaknesses combined with the identified market threats and opportunities. Allstar’s singular product, Allround, is the market leader and the brand historically has had success in terms of profitability and sales. Allstar Brand’s single product line accounted for 40.4% of the cold product category of the market and 23.8% of the total OTC cold medicine market. However, Allstar management had, rightfully so, become concerned with the competitive nature of the OTC cold remedy market. Senior management suspected that competitive activity would lead to declining market share and profitability…

    PERIOD 4: During period 4 it was apparent that we maintained our primary focus on the grocery stores since the majority of our sales force was there. Realizing that it was one of our biggest marketers, we continued to increase in this area (increasing by 8% during this period). We realized at this point that when looking at sales force numbers, we were one of the lowest ones and we thought that if we could bump our total sale force from 183 to 190, and then for our next decision we’d try and push it over 200 that might benefit us. As a result, we increased the numbers in Chain Drug Stores by 5, Mass Merchandisers increased by 5 and Wholesalers and Merchandisers increased by 3 which increased our increased the overall sales force totals from 165 to 186 putting us where we thought we needed to be to remain competitive in the market.…
